Battle Road comes to Foxboro

Tuesday

Before watching the New England Patriots battle it out on the field, fans will be able to grab a fresh Battle Road Brewing Company beer right before the game.

Battle Road Brewing Company of Maynard announced on Tuesday they will set up a pop-up (or hop up as they’re calling it) at Patriot Place.

The new hop up will be open Fridays and Saturdays and on Patriots game days from October through December. It will open on Oct. 12.

The hop up will have several of Battle Road’s core beers, and will also feature beers brewed specifically for the Patriot Place location. Food will not be served, but people can bring their own or have it delivered from other restaurants at Patriot Place.

“We have been looking for the perfect location for a taproom and Patriot Place is it,” said WAAF morning show host, Greg Hill, who is the managing partner of the group behind Battle Road. “As a big fan of the Patriots and what the Krafts have created at Patriot Place, we are honored to launch our ‘Hop Up’ concept here, right next to Gillette Stadium.”

The new space is a preview of a planned Battle Road taproom that they hope to debut next year. Battle Road was originally opened as a contract brewery in 2012, and opened up their brewery and restaurant in Maynard in 2017.

“We have wanted to bring a brewery taproom concept to Patriot Place for quite some time and believe we have found everything we have been looking for in Battle Road Brewing Company,” said Patriot Place General Manager and Vice President Brian Earley. “We love Battle Road’s taproom model, their beer and their fun atmosphere. We cannot wait to introduce Battle Road to fans of great craft beer with our first ‘Hop Up’ event on Oct. 12.”
